Dear friends, I have a Dell Latitude D820 laptop. Today, I changed the screen resolution to something smaller using Menu>System>Administration>Display, and I can not change it back. The display used to be set to generic LCD display and the resolution - I think - was set to 1680x1050. Now the display is set to generic LCD panel 1024x768 and the highest resolution available is 1360x768. When I change the monitor type, it simply says the change will not take effect until I log out and in again, and it does not allow me to change the resolution to something higher (even though the monitor type is set to be a generic LCD with some higher resolution). When I log out and in, the monitor type is set to what it was before (see above). Web search has not solved the problem. Neither was I able to find out what monitor I have, nor what might be the problem. Video Card is nVidia Corporation G72M. Any help? Thanks!
